USAToday--"Coffee makers and a dishwasher that can be fired up while you're out doing errands. Driverless cars. Wearable tech gear, and not just smartwatches, goggles and sunglasses — there's even a line of smart jewelry that displays new photos from your Facebook and Instagram feeds.... 

CES will feature kitchen products (coffee makers, crock pots, refrigerators, dishwashers and microwave ovens) that can be turned on and off and adjusted via a smartphone or tablet. The idea is that you can be out and, for instance, turn on the stove to get the pot roast going before you get home. Or you can wake up, brush your teeth and start the coffee maker from the bathroom via the smartphone, so that a fresh cup of coffee is waiting for you when you enter the kitchen.

This year, it's all about the truly connected car. Nine of the top 10 auto manufacturers will be on hand, several with concept versions of cars that drive themselves. Ford will also show off a solar-powered concept car that will run for much of the time via sunlight from the sun roof....

Wearable tech. One of the most distinctive — if odd-looking — products of 2013 was Google Glass, the computer that sits atop your nose. Look for many more gadgets in this vein at CES, with regular glasses, sunglasses and ski goggles that can display maps, restaurant reviews and more while you're out and about. CES will feature a Fashion Zone showcasing wearable devices, and smart clothing.

"We'll have a sweater that will measure the weather around you," CEA senior vice president Jeff Joseph says. "It will adjust the thickness based on the outside temperature." There will even be a solar charging handbag to power up those battery-hogging smartphones. A new startup, Kiwi Wearable Technology, will showcase a wearable sensor that fits in the palm of your hand and can both turn on music and track your ski moves."
